Re: 57 Truck build
Sunday I started the tear down of the 4.8. Over all the engine looks good but 100k has made it a little dirty. I also found some light rust in the cylinders but nothing a hone wouldn’t take care of. Since I had Monday off I decided to drop it off to my friends machine shop to get freshened up. I’m just going to do new bearings, crank polish, HP cam, upgraded rod bolts, lS6 lifters, timing chain, clean and hone. The bottoms end will be taken care of. Heads will get cleaned, checked warp, lap and new ls6 springs. I also decided to service the trans and give it a new paint job. We’re slowly getting there!
